A compiler for the normally interpretive REXX language, available for z/OS and z/VM. Intended to speed up large REXX applications.

Library for REXX/370

Run-time routines for compiled REXX programs in z/OS and z/VM. See also Compiler for REXX/370.

Object REXX

An object-oriented version of the REXX programming language that runs on Windows, AIX, Linux (Intel and mainframe) and OS/2. The Windows version comes in both Interpreter and Development editions.

Restructured Extended Executor

REXX

(1) A general-purpose, high-level, programming language, particularly suitable for EXEC procedures or programs for personal computing (2) The i5/OS implementation of the Systems Application Architecture Procedures Language. REXX is a programming language that is supported by an interpreter provided as part of the i5/OS licensed program

A general-purpose, procedural language for end-user personal programming, designed for ease by both casual general users and computer professionals. It is also useful for application macros. REXX includes the capability of issuing commands to the underlying operating system from these macros and procedures

Restructured Extended Executor

REXX

A general-purpose programming language, particularly suitable for EXEC procedures, XEDIT macros, or programs for personal computing. Procedures, XEDIT macros, and programs written in this language can be interpreted by the REXX/VM interpreter. Contrast with CMS EXEC language and EXEC 2 language

REstructured eXtended eXecutor

REXX

RE>structured eX>tended eX>ecutor ,REXX was initially created and implemented as an independent project by Mike Cowlishaw of IBM. The project started in 1979 and ran through 1982. It was origanally a scripting language for the IBM Mainframe

Restructured EXtended eXecutor language. A command procedure cum programming language which was initially available on z/VM only, replacing EXEC and EXEC2, but later became an SAA standard. Although SAA is a distant memory, REXX availability in z/OS TSO has seen it replace CLIST as the tool of choice, especially given the fact that TSO, and therefore REXX, can be run in batch. REXX is an effective programming language in its own right with powerful string processing facilities and is used to drive certain program products, notably GDDM. REXX is also available in VSE/ESA, AIX, OS/2, Linux and Windows. Although normally interpretive, a REXX compiler and library is available for z/OS and z/VM. REXX for CICS is available for z/OS and VSE/ESA it consists of REXX Development System and REXX Development System. Object REXX is available for Windows, OS/2, AIX, and Linux for Intel and zSeries 900. See also REXX Language Support.

REXX exec

An EXEC procedure or XEDIT macro written in the REXX language and processed by the REXX/VM Interpreter. Synonymous with REXX program

REXX interpreter

The language processor of the i5/OS licensed program that processes procedures and programs written in the REXX language
